Cambodia & Vietnam (Mekong Delta)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Cambodia and Vietnam's Mekong Delta region is one of Southeast Asia's most compelling travel corridors, following the mighty Mekong River as it winds from the temples of Phnom Penh and Siem Reap down through the lush, labyrinthine waterways of southern Vietnam. Cambodia draws travellers with the awe-inspiring Angkor Wat complex, vibrant river cities, and a deeply layered history, while the Mekong Delta — Vietnam's "rice bowl" — is famous for its floating markets, stilted villages, fruit orchards, and boat-threaded canals. The route offers a rich mix of history, culture, cuisine, and slow-travel adventure, popular with independent travellers and small groups who want to explore two distinct cultures in a single journey.

Self-Launched Downstream Mekong: Siem Reap to Ho Chi Minh City (10 Days)

A do-it-yourself version of VietLong Travel's 10-day guided Mekong river route, stripped of the group tour price tag. You'll cover the same ground — Angkor's temples at sunrise and sunset, Phnom Penh's most important historical sites, a speedboat across the Cambodian–Vietnamese border, a night or two on the Mekong, floating markets, and Ho Chi Minh City plus the Cu Chi tunnels — using tuk-tuks, local buses, the public river speedboat, a budget Mekong cruise/sampan homestay, and self-booked city tours. Book Angkor guides and Mekong boat trips directly or via GetYourGuide/Klook; skip the group, keep the itinerary. All costs are approximate per-person estimates in GBP.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Cambodia & Vietnam (Mekong Delta) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
